i don't really have much to say, except i am starting to experience a scratchy throat, which can only mean one thing. also, it's 4:30am and i am still awake -- this sleep schedule for probably the third week in a row. habit has turned into a revolving daily pattern. i REALLY want that to stop, and i suppose moving home on tuesday will sustain me from this self-opprobrium. because that's all it usually takes, a slight lifestyle change to kick me back into gear. i want my mornings back. time to cut bananas into my bowl of cheerios, and read my newspaper. in the meantime, i have nine essays to write tomorrow.. none of them longer than a couple pages, but STILL.. all because i didn't really work yesterday or today. this semester is dashing itself against the breakwater. it just wants to reach the finish line, and for whatever reason i can't invest the energy to leap that last hurdle.
really though, it's probably cause i am coming down with something. an ominous little tepid cough announces itself about every half an hour.
which might be for the best, because if i don't take this five-day roadtrip starting tuesday night -- still no sign of my student loan check, which is def. integral to these plans -- my week will basically consist of rest and cleaning up my house. the spring cleaning i had begun to undertake right before.. yeah. and rest, my friends, is exactly what i need. why i've been running myself ragged these last few weeks is completely beyond me.
